CHILDREN OF BODOM/DEVIN TOWNSEND TOUR A REALITY — AND OBSCURA AND SEPTICFLESH ARE COMIN’ ALONG, TOO!

It’s been almost a month since Devin Townsend spilled the beans that he was doing a summer tour with Children of Bodom — and now that tour has finally and officially been announced. That’s already a super-sexy package, but Obscura and Septicflesh are on the bill, too, which makes these shows downright unmissable.

And there’s really not much else to say, is there? It’s almost impossible for me to believe that any metal fan doesn’t love at least 75% of this bill.
